I wrote an article on the best coffees and way to brew coffee to live longer last year that can still be found on my website.
And now another study showing it once again:
Clear Cardiovascular Benefits
A total of 449,563 UK Biobank participants (median age 58 years; 55% women), who were free of arrhythmias or other CVD at baseline, reported their level of daily coffee intake and preferred type of coffee on questionnaires.
During more than 12.5 years of follow up, 27,809 (6.2%) of participants died.
Drinking 1 to 5 cups/day of ground or instant coffee (but not decaffeinated coffee) was associated with a significant reduction in incident arrhythmia. The lowest risk was with 4 to 5 cups/day for ground coffee (hazard ratio [HR] 0.83; 95% CI, 0.76 - 0.91; P < .0001) and 2 to 3 cups/day for instant coffee (HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.85 - 0.92; P < .0001).
Habitual coffee drinking of up to 5 cups/day was also associated with significant reductions in the risk of incident CVD, when compared with nondrinkers.
Significant reductions in the risk of incident coronary heart disease (CHD) were associated with habitual coffee intake of up to 5 cups/day, with the lowest risk for CHD observed in those who consumed 2 to 3 cups/day (HR 0.89; 95% CI, 0.86 - 0.91; P < .0001).
Coffee consumption at all levels was associated with significant reduction in the risk of congestive cardiac failure (CCF) and ischemic stroke. The lowest risks were observed in those who consumed 2 to 3 cups/day, with HR, 0.83 (95% CI, 0.79 - 0.87; P < .0001) for CCF and HR, 0.84 (95% CI, 0.78 - 0.90; P < .0001) for ischemic stroke.
Death from any cause was significantly reduced for all coffee subtypes, with the greatest risk reduction seen with 2 to 3 cups/day for decaffeinated (HR, 0.86; 95% CI 0.81 - 0.91; P < .0001); ground (HR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.69 - 0.78; P < .0001); and instant
